The Shadow presents “Cold Death,” originally broadcast on December 19, 1937. This Christmas-season episode is identified as script no. 13 and is also cataloged as episode #099. Orson Welles stars as Lamont Cranston/The Shadow, with Agnes Moorehead as Margo Lane, in this Mutual Broadcasting System broadcast sponsored by Blue Coal.
Shortly before Christmas, Cranston investigates Carverville, a mill town ruled by its powerful owner, Daniel Carver. With reporters shut out and workers facing bitter cold, poverty, and unsafe homes, the Shadow confronts a grim situation with a distinctly Dickensian moral atmosphere.
The Shadow presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
